Turkish Breakfast

    Last week we took the girls and visited my friend Elif and her mother. She makes an amazing Turkish breakfast and she even taught us how to make a cheese pastry - it was so easy and delicious!

    Elif and her mom are singing a Turkish kids song with the girls. As you can tell, Adeline missed her morning nap and it was starting to show. But, Bailey loved clapping along!

    I was motivated to make the cheese pastry at home, so Adeline joined me in the kitchen for a lesson. If you want to see more Turkish recipes and even try some out yourself, check out this website.

    The finished product - a thin pastry (called yufka) with 2 cheeses (one that is similar to feta) and parsley rolled up inside. Fry it up in a little olive oil - and it's finished! It's called sigara borek in Turkish, which translates cigarette pastry. Obviously it is only called this because they are rolled up and resemble cigarettes.

    Adeline loved it!
